In addition, Jason Pinnock came off the Covid-19 reserve list yesterday.

Echols is reportedly out for 3-to-5 weeks with a quad injury. Javelin Guidry may now be the starter for the foreseeable future, although Isaiah Dunn and perhaps Pinnock too could get a shot if he struggles.

Wildgoose is a rookie and yet to make his NFL debut after being drafted by the Bills in the sixth round. He had six tackles, two pass breakups and a pass interference penalty in preseason.

The undrafted rookie Yeboah gets his shot on the active roster having been active twice off the practice squad. He didn't play any offensive snaps on Sunday.

Doss has decent size and started two games with the Raiders as an undrafted rookie in 2019, catching 11 passes for 133 yards. However, he's played just three offensive snaps since then.

Thompson hasn't played since 2019, but played 18 games with the Bills, starting one in 2018 and 2019. He has 21 tackles, two tackles for loss, a forced fumble and a quarterback hit in his career.
